Can music be used to amplify social issues and inspire others to advocate for change? Yes! Since the late โ70s, hip-hop and music have tackled big issues โ especially reducing the stigma around mental health! But what if music helped to bring about even bigger social change? At least thatโs the vision for climate entrepreneur Samir Ibrahim (samiribrahim). He says we have a huge opportunity to use music to make talking about climate change a little more... well, cool. ๐ โWe have this incredible opportunity to participate in the biggest revolution we have ever seen,โ Ibrahim says. โAnd I believe that hip hop and culture are part of the solution.โ Want an example?

Get to know the largest member of the pelican family, the Dalmatian Pelican (Pelecanus crispus)! Weighing as much as 28 pounds (13 kilograms) with a wingspan of up to 11 feet (3.5 meters), itโs also one of the largest flying birds today. Populations range from parts of Eastern Europe to China during breeding season, and to the Mediterranean during winters. It prefers to inhabit wetlands, where it can find fish such as carp and eel.
